Day 121

Dear Daddy,
Mommy woke up in a panic today because she didn't hear her alarm go off at 8 and when we woke up it was 8:40! Normally this would have made her happy but today we had Gymboree at 10. So we rushed and got up and fed the doggies and ate a quick breakfast and then Mommy jumped in the shower and we got ready to go. We made it in time :) Miss Rachel told us what Gymbo's birthday is going to be like on Saturday. She said there will be cupcakes, lots of art projects and fun and dancing and she even said Gymbo will make a special appearance. I can't wait.

After Gymboree we went to lunch at Submarina like we always do. It was so yummy (like it always is). Then we went home and played. Mommy let me chase her around the living room and the house for about 45 minutes. I thought it was soo much fun. I laughed and laughed and it tuckered me out for my nap. I took a 2 hour nap! Mommy liked that. Then we headed off to the grocery store and got a few things.

When we got home I went outside with Grandpa and "helped" him work on the boat while Mommy took Lana for her walk to the dog park. I had lots of fun and when Mommy got home and it was dinner time I threw a fit. I didn't want to get out of the boat. But Grandpa said I can help him tomorrow after work too.

Mommy keeps telling me every day that Friday night we are giving my binkys to the babies. Thats tomorrow so Im trying to enjoy every last minute of them.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Day 120

Dear Daddy,
I let Mommy sleep in until 8:15 so she was happy about that. Mommy made turkey sausage and whole grain waffles-my favorite!

Then we got online and waited for you to get on. It's my favorite part of the day-talking to you :)
After that we got ready for the day and played outside until lunch time.

I had some pasta and yogurt for lunch.

After lunch it was nap time and then after that Mommy and I went and got smoothies at Jamba Juice. I love when Mommy lets me have my own.

We had a pretty relaxing day for the most part. I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Day 119

Dear Daddy,
Today we slept in a little bit so Mommy was happy about that. Then we woke up and got online to talk to you. After that we got ready for the day and then it was time for lunch believe it or not.

I had some popcorn chicken and pasta and applesauce and Mommy had her turkey burger and some brown rice. I ate all of my lunch so Mommy took me outside to play for a little while. Then it was nap time. Mommy ended up taking a nap with me because she had a headache. When we woke up we had a snack and then Mommy got me ready to go to the park with Grandpa. When he got home from work, Grandpa took me to the park for an hour! I had so much fun Grandpa said. While we were at the park, Mommy took Lana to the dog park.

We had leftover spaghetti for dinner and it was good! I got a popsicle for dessert again since I ate all my dinner.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Day 118

Dear Daddy,
I've been waking Mommy up at around 7:30 every morning. She is getting used to it though.

We got up and ate breakfast and then Mommy took a shower and we got ready. Then you got online and I showed you how I can look at a number and know what number it is. Aren't you proud of me Daddy? Mommy keeps telling me how smart I am. I just think its fun to read and count.

We ate lunch and then played outside until nap time. After my nap Mommy had to go see her doctor, but when she came home we played airplane and rocket ship. When Grandpa got home he barbecued chicken on the grill and we had that and rice pilaf for dinner. It was very yummy. I ate 2 plates full of food so Mommy let me have a popsicle for dessert.

I was such a good boy at nap time and bed time today. I layed in bed and fell asleep without Mommy having to hold me or rock me in your bed. Mommy was so proud of me.

She said on Friday night I am not going to have my binkys anymore. We are going to send them to the babies that need them. She is hoping I do well.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Day 117

Dear Daddy,
How are you? We are doing good here. Today we didn't do anything to special. We played outside until lunch time after we had talked to you. Then I took a nap and Mommy went and got her nails done using the gift certificate that Tali gave her for her birthday.

When she got home her and Grandpa took me and Lana over to the park. We took Lana to the dog park first, but then we took her on a walk around the park and I got to run around. We had a great time except that I wasn't listening and kept running away.

We had spaghetti for dinner and it was good! I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXO

Day 116

Dear Daddy,
I was so happy to get to talk to you as soon as we got up this morning! I love talking to you and seeing you on the computer. We had to say bye bye though because Mommy had to take Lana to the vet. Im sure Mommy will tell you all about it, but all I know is that she is on a new special type of food.

Mommy has decided she isnt taking away my binkys until next Friday. Starting tonight I'm only allowed to have them at bed time and nap time. Then that way next Friday it should be a little easier to get rid of them since I won't have been having them during the day all day.

Mommy got us chinese food for dinner because Aunt Krista and Uncle Curt are gone for the weekend so Grandma and Grandpa were eating out too.

I had lots of fun today playing outside and then playing with Mommy inside after dinner.

I love you and miss you Daddy. Mommy and Lana love and miss you too.


XOXOXOXOXO

Day 115

Dear Daddy,
Since today was Mommy's birthday I made sure she had a good day. I woke up and gave her a big hug and kiss. She was happy about that, but was hoping I would sleep in on her birthday. She didn't sleep well again last night and I woke her up at 730. So we went out and I ate breakfast and then we laid on the couch and watched tv and both fell back asleep til 930. Then you got online and we talked to you for a while.

We then got ready and ate lunch and then I took a nap. When I woke up from my nap I played with Grandpa while Mommy went to the post office to mail out your package.

Then when mommy got home we played outside til dinner time. Mommy made dinner for me and then she got ready because she was going out to dinner with Amy and Tali for her birthday.

i was okay for Grandma and Grandpa while Mommy was gone. I actually went to sleep for Grandma. Mommy was surprised that I did. But she was happy because this just means that when you get home, you and Mommy can have date nights and Grandma and Grandpa can watch me and i will go to bed for them. It was a big step for me.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Day 114

Dear Daddy,
Today was Gymboree day. We woke up at 8 and ate breakfast. Mommy made whole grain waffles and turkey sausage for us. It was yummy! I ate all of mine and some of Mommys. Then we got ready and headed to Gymboree.

Today was the 2nd week of frogs and turtles. We pretended to be frogs and turtles and did lots of jumping and crawling slowly. When class was over Mommy signed me up for Gymbo's birthday party next Saturday. Mommy said it should be lots of fun.

We had Submarina for lunch like we always do after Gymboree. It was pretty good.

Then we came home and I bugged Mommy to play Mario Kart. So we played that for a little while until nap time. After nap Mommy and I played with my cars til grandma got home. Then Mommy went to the gym.

We had pizza and cake for dinner for Mommy's birthday since she is going out with Amy and Tali to dinner tomorrow on her birthday. We talked to you on skype while we sang Happy Birthday and I did such a good job helping Mommy blow out her candles.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 113

Dear Daddy,

3 months, 3 weeks and 1 day down. We are almost 1/3 of the way done. Today I let Mommy sleep in until 8 and she was happy about that. We got up and got ready and headed to Walmart and the grocery store for some shopping. I was a good boy the whole time.

When we got home Grandpa was home for lunch and I played with him while Mommy put the groceries away and made me lunch.

Then it was nap time. when I woke up Mommy and I cuddled and watched Ni hao kai lan until I was happy-I didn't wake up in a very good mood. Then Mommy went the gym and took Lana for her walk. Mommy asked me if I wanted to go with to take Lana for a walk and I said no. While Mommy was gone I went poopy and then I stuck my hand down my diaper and got poop all over my hand. Grandpa ran me in the house to Grandma saying "emergency emergency!". Grandma was in the bathroom at the time, but when she realized what the "emergency" was she made Grandpa wash off my hands :op You know how Grandpa is about poop. Mommy laughed when she heard the story when she got home.

We had yummy Hidden Valley ranch chicken for dinner and pasta with alfredo sauce. It was good i even had seconds.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 112


Dear Daddy,
How are you? Today I woke Mommy up at 7am. She was so not happy because Lana had kept her up til almost 3 again. 4 hours of sleep is not enough for Mommy-you know that. Today I was so HYPER! I had so much energy Mommy had no idea where it all came from. I just was in a very good mood is all.

Mommy made me peanut butter and jelly for lunch, but of course I didn't eat it. I just wanted a nutrigrain bar. Then I took a nap and Grandma listened for me over the monitor while Mommy went to the gym. When Mommy got home she had brought me home a surprise from the store she stopped at on her way home.

You can kind of see it in the last picture. Its a Cars baseball bat and baseball. I played with it all night.



I was a good boy and ate dinner. Then I ran around the house for about an hour screaming and yelling at myself to "slow down" since thats what Mommy kept telling me. You saw how crazy I was being when we were talking to you on skype.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXO

Day 111

Dear Daddy,
I woke Mommy up at 7:30 today and she was not happy-Lana had kept her up until almost 3am. It was a rough night for Mommy! But I let Mommy lounge on the couch while I watched tv and played with my toys for another hour or so. I also cuddled with Mommy for a bit and watched something on Disney. Then we got to talk to you for a while.

I haven't been eating all that great lately. I take a few bites and then decide I'm done. But Mommy isn't too concerned-I do this every few weeks and then I go back to eating like crazy again.

Tomorrow Mommy is going to attempt to take me to the daycare at the gym since she didn't get to go to day. Grandma is busy tomorrow again so can't watch me. Mommy is hoping I do well and don't cry the whole time so she can get in her hour work out. We also are going to take Lana on a walk once it cools down more in the evening.

I was a good boy today and went right to bed for my nap and bedtime in my new bed. I love it :) I went in the room about 5 times today just to play in my bed. I even make car noises while I "drive" it. I love my new camel stuffed animal Daddy. Thank you! I named him Cammy the camel.

Well Daddy I love you and miss you. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 110

Dear Daddy,

See how happy I am to be in my new bed? I LOVE it. Too bad it took me 2 1/2 hours to go to sleep tonight. Mommy says its just new and I have to get used to it.

Other than getting the room re-arranged and my bed put together, not much happened today. We bbq'd hamburgers for dinner and I ate some chips-nacho cheese doritos my favorite!

Tomorrow Mommy is going to attempt to take me to the gym daycare so she can work out in the morning since Grandma has a doctor's appointment after work and can't watch me while Mommy goes to the gym. Mommy is hoping I do well and don't cry the whole time. Maybe I'll be a good boy and not cry for her. :)

Here are some more pictures of me in my bed.






Love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 109

Dear Daddy,

It was pretty hot here today. I know it isn't as hot as it is where you are though. When we woke up Mommy made us breakfast and then we lounged around for a bit. Then you got online and we talked to you for a while.

We had leftover chinese food for lunch. I ate like such a big boy. Mommy was happy about that. After lunch Mommy and I colored until nap time. While I took a nap Mommy worked on her crochet project-some shorties to go over my cloth diapers. I took about an hour and a half nap and woke up in a great mood. When I woke up I was being crazy and running around everywhere. I dumped all of my ABC flash cards on the floor and kept running over them and falling on purpose and being silly. Of course as soon as Mommy got the camera to take a video of it I stopped. Im so silly!

We went outside after it cooled down for a bit and I had a good time coloring with my chalk and playing in my car. When we came back in it was dinner time and then playtime until bath. I watched Jacks Big Music show with Grandpa and sang all the songs. I had a great time.

Mommy said tomorrow she is going to put my new bed together. I can't wait to sleep in my race car bed! Mommy said that she will take lots of pictures for you.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXO

Day 108

Dear Daddy,
Today we slept in until almost 9 since I was up until 10:30 last night. Mommy isn't sure why, but I just didn't want to go to bed last night. When we woke up Mommy made breakfast and then we watched an episode of Jack's Big Music Show. Then Mommy took a shower and we went outside to play until lunch time.

After lunch I wanted to watch Cars so Mommy let me until nap time. After nap we read some books and played with my cars. Mommy took Lana for a short walk and I wanted to stay with Grandma so I did. Grandma and I had a good time playing. When Mommy got home she decided she wanted chinese food for dinner. So we ordered from Wongs Wok. It was delicious. I had some fried rice and some of Mommys orange chicken too. There is plenty left over for lunch tomorrow Mommy said.

After I took a bath Kevin and Aunt Krista were playing Mario Kart so I pretended to play for a little bit. Then Mommy was finally able to get me into the room to go to bed. You helped Mommy read to me with skype-I loved that.

I went to sleep after only 20 minutes so Mommyw as happy that I didn't stay up late again.

Well Daddy, I love you and miss you. So do Mommy and Lana

Day 107

Dear Daddy,
Today is Gymboree day! We woke up early so we could get ready on time. Today we made pretend like we were frogs and turtles. It was so much fun! I even found Gymbo during hide and seek time.

After Gymboree we went out to lunch to Submarina. I love going there with Mommy. We always split a wrap and Mommy lets me have some chips too. I always flirt with the ladies who work there. They like me.

When we got home we played with my puzzles until it was nap time. After nap time Mommy and I went and got smoothies from Jamba Juice. I drank all of mine really fast!

I had fun showing off for you at dinner time. I love talking to you Daddy. I miss you and love you. Mommy and Lana send their love too.

XOXOXO

Day 106

Dear Daddy,
How are you? I am good. Today we woke up around 8 and then ate breakfast. Then we got ready to go to the AT&T store so Mommy could get her Iphone. She said it is her early Christmas present from you. I was very good at the AT&T store.

We got home and ate lunch and then we watched Cars until nap time. After nap time we played until Grandpa got home and then Grandpa and Mommy went and picked up my race car bed. It looks really neat! I can't wait til they put it together this weekend.

That is about all for today Daddy. I love you and miss you. Mommy and Lana love and miss you too.

Day 105

Dear Daddy,
Today was a lazy day at home. We didn't have any errands to run or anything really to do. After we woke up, we watched Disney Channel for a while in bed. We had some turkey sausage and whole wheat waffles for breakfast. I ate two sausage links-Mommy was pretty surprised. Then we got ready and dressed for the day.

And guess what Mommy did next for me? She built a fort between the coffee table and the couch. I had so much fun! I crawled under it back and forth for almost 45 minutes. Here I am having a great time!



Soon after it was lunch time, but just like yesterday I refused to eat lunch again. After my nap I played with Grandma so Mommy could go to the gym. Mommy said she wishes I was okay with staying at the gym daycare for the hour while she works out so that she didn't have to bug Grandma all the time. But Grandma says she loves watching me so it helps Mommy out a ton.

I didn't want to eat dinner either, but then wanted to eat what everyone else was snacking on later. I'm a silly boy Mommy says.

I love you and miss you Daddy. Mommy and Lana send their love-they love you and miss you too.

XOXOXOXOXO

Day 104

Dear Daddy,
Today we woke up at 8:30. We ate breakfast and then got ready. You talked to us for a little bit while Mommy got me dressed and I brushed my teeth. Then we had to run some errands. We went to the post office to mail out your package and to send the portable DVD player back to Grammy. Then we had to run to the grocery store. Mommy said we might go to Walmart tomorrow to get a stool for me to so I can wash my hands by myself.

We have been practicing using the potty a lot lately. Ever since we had our playdate at Kayden's and I saw her using the big potty, I have been wanting to use it. Mommy says if I start going on the big potty all the time that I can get some Cars underwear. I'm trying my best Daddy. I went once on the big potty, but I have been doing lots of trying too. Mommy is so proud of me.

I took a 2 1/2 hour nap today. When Grandma got home, Mommy was able to go to the gym for an hour and then when she got home I had just woken up. Then when Grandpa got home, Mommy and I helped him to measure out the room to make sure my new bed is going to fit and it will. It should be here soon-I'm so excited!

We had chili spaghetti for dinner. I love talking to you at dinner time. It's something I look forward to every day Daddy. After dinner while Mommy kept talking to you I went outside and played with Grandpa.

It was overall a great day! Love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 103

Dear Daddy,
Lana woke us up early again today. Mommy was very unhappy with her about that. I didnt want my cereal bar for breakfast-all I wanted was crackers so Mommy let me have some. You got online soon after so we talked to you for a while. I played with Aunt Krista while Mommy took a shower.

We didn't do much else today. While I took a nap everyone-Mommy, Aunt Krista, Uncle Curt, Grandma and Kevin played Mario Kart on the Wii. They played for about 2 hours. They played again after dinner too and have played for hours. They are so funny to watch when they play too. They all get so mad when they lose. They let me play too and I won :)

We had barbecue chicken and yummy Toasted onion and garlic potatoes. I ended up eating my dinner in the living room. I didnt want to eat until Aunt Krista let me eat off of her plate. Then it was time for bath and bed.

I love you and miss you very much Daddy. So do Lana & Mommy.

XOXOXOXO

Day 102

Dear Daddy,
Mommy was hoping to get to sleep in today, but Lana woke us up at 7:45. Mommy wasn't too happy about that. Mommy let me have donuts for breakfast and they were delicious. She wishes she had some donuts too but instead had oatmeal-too bad for Mommy because those donuts were delicious!

After breakfast we played outside some and watched Cars for a while too. Then it was time for lunch and Mommy and I had some popcorn chicken and whole wheat pasta. Its so yummy! Then it was nap time and while I napped Mommy went to the gym. She was home in time for me to wake up from my nap which was good because I woke up screaming. I had a bad dream.

Mommy then set up my pool so I could play in it. That lasted for about 10 minutes and then I wanted out to run around outside. Soon it was time to take Lana for her walk at the dog park. We let her play because she was having so much fun playing with the other dogs. Mommy figured she was getting enough exercise running around with the other dogs and since it was so hot we didnt need to take her for any laps around the park.

Soon it was time to go home for dinner and then it was bath time. I got to talk to you again too which I loved. Then it was bed time.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 101

Dear Daddy,
Today was our playdate at Kelly & Kayden's house. We got up early to get ready and i was being a pill. I didn't want to do anything Mommy asked me to do. We ended up leaving 30 minutes later than we planned and got stuck in traffic on the 15 for fifteen minutes so we got to their house about 45 min later than planned. But thats okay we still had lots of fun!

We had pizza and breadsticks for lunch and we did lots of playing. I was a good boy and didn't hit or push or anything. I did steal some toys from Kayden, but when Mommy asked me to share I gave them back. I gave Kayden lots of hugs too. Mommy and Kelly had lots of time to talk. We had a great time!

I slept on the way home for about 30 minutes so Mommy was happy about that.

Mommy ordered Chilis for dinner and went and picked it up. We had some chips and salsa and those new chicken quesadillas that Mommy loves so much. They are quite tasty.

I was so happy that you got online and got to talk to me while I took a bath and got ready for bed. I gave Mommy a little bit of a rough time at bed time, but eventually fell asleep.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 100

Dear Daddy,
Today was Gymboree day! I moved up to level 5 and it was a lot of fun. I even found Little Gymbo during the hide and seek. Mommy was so proud of me. We went out to Submarina for lunch afterwards. Mommy and i shared a turkey on a wheat wrap and Mommy let me get a bag of chips too.

When I woke up from my nap, Mommy was playing Mario Kart on the Wii. She let me play with her and I won two races :)

When Grandma got home, Mommy went to the gym and then walked Lana. Mommy let me go swimming in my pool when she got home because it was still pretty warm outside. I got mad after about 10 minutes though and threw a fit so Mommy took me inside.

After dinner, Mommy and Aunt Krista broke out the Mario Kart again and I got to play some more too. Then it was my bath time and bed time. I was being very silly at bed time but I feel asleep pretty quickly.

Tomorrow we are going to Kelly & Kayden's house for pizza and a playdate. I love you and miss you so much Daddy. So do Mommy & Lana.

XOXOXO

Day 99

Dear Daddy,
I was a very good boy today. Mommy was so surprised. After her doctors appointment this morning, we went to Walmart and did some grocery shopping as well. I was a very good boy while we were shopping. When we got home I played with Grandpa (he was home at lunch) while Mommy put away the groceries.

After my nap, Mommy got a call from the gym that her personal trainer was in labor so they had to cancel her session. Mommy is just going to wait for her to come back to work-the gym manager said she only takes 2 weeks off-before she starts her personal training sessions. I'll tell you though Daddy I don't like that daycare there. I'm so glad Grandma offered to watch me while Mommy goes and works out.

Grandma ordered pizza for dinner. Mommy had a turkey burger and brown rice though. She said she just imagined it was pizza.

Well Daddy I should go to bed. I love you and miss you so much Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

XOXOXOXOXO

Day 98

Dear Daddy,
I slept ALL night last night. I didn't wake Mommy up one time. She got a great nights sleep. We woke up a little early this morning because we were going to breakfast with a friend of Mommy's from high school. It was very good. I ate some pancakes and bacon. When we got home we talked to you online and then it was nap time. After my nap Mommy and I did some coloring and painting until Grandma got home from work.

Then I stayed and played with Grandma while Mommy went to the gym since I don't like the daycare at the gym.

Mommy got all of us sandwiches and herself a wrap at Submarina. Grandma tried giving Mommy money for hers and Grandpas but Mommy said no. She figures because they do so much to help Mommy out while you are gone.

I love you and miss you so much Daddy. Mommy and Lana do too.

XOXOXOXOXO

Day 97

Dear Daddy,
Mommy and I slept in again today. After we got up and ate breakfast, Mommy and I headed to the gym. I did okay when i first went in the daycare, but after about 5 minutes I started screaming and screamed for about 30 minutes until the lady finally went and got Mommy. Mommy and Grandma talked and Grandma is going to watch me when she gets off work for an hour while Mommy goes to the gym. Mommy doesn't want to put me through that every day.

We talked to you online when we got home from the gym. I love talking to you Daddy. I miss you bunches.

After Grandma got home from work she asked Mommy if she could keep me and play with me while Mommy took Lana for a walk. Mommy of course said yes because she knows how Grandma loves playing with me. Also its easier for Mommy to walk Lana when she doesnt have to push me in a stroller.

We had some chicken and rice for dinner. It was very yummy. Then we played outside until bath and bedtime. Mommy said she is ordering my new race car bed tomorrow and I can't wait until it gets here!

Tomorrow morning we are going out to breakfast with one of Mommy's friends from high school. I can't wait to eat pancakes!

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy and Lana.

Day 96

Dear Daddy,

I slept in until 9:15 again for Mommy. Then we woke up and I had some cereal for breakfast. Then we got ready for the day and then played with my cars and my puzzles for a while. Soon it was lunch time and we were talking to you at that time. I love talking to you on skype. When it was dinner time today I kept asking Mommy for you. I wanted to talk to you while I ate again.

While I was taking a nap Grandma listened on the monitor for me while Mommy went and got that storage shelf thing with the bins she was telling you about. She will have to take a picture of it for you tomorrow. I helped Mommy put it together when I woke up from my nap. Soon after that Grandpa and Mommy and I took Lana to the dog park. We had so much fun because there were no other dogs there for most of the time we were there so Lana and I just got to run around the whole time.

I love you and miss you so much Daddy. Mommy and Lana send their love.

XOXOXOXO

Day 95

Dear Daddy,

We had a nice 4th of July. We just relaxed around the house and played with all of my toys and played outside some too. I let Mommy sleep in until 915. She was so happy about that. When I woke up Mommy made us some scrambled eggs for breakfast. Then we got ready and watched an episode of Blue's Clues and then played outside until lunch time. After lunch I took a nap and Mommy returned my crib since it got recalled.

After my nap we played outside some more and then we got ready to eat dinner. Grandpa barbecued hamburgers and Grandma made pasta salad. It was so delicious! After dinner we watched the race until we had to leave for the fireworks. Mommy was happy that when we left for the fireworks Denny was in the lead. Too bad he finished in 3rd and Tony won!

I had a great time at the fireworks. We got there early to get a good parking spot and the parking lot was empty so I got to run around and play a lot. We took my new bike and I had lots of fun!

I liked the fireworks and was not scared at all. I fell asleep on the way home and then of course when I got home I was wide awake. So Mommy put in Cars and we laid in bed and fell asleep watching Cars.

I love you and miss you Daddy. So do Mommy & Lana.

Day 94

Dear Daddy,
How are you? I didn't have the best day because I am not feeling well. :o( I whined a lot today, but Mommy gave me lots and lots of extra cuddles today because she knew I wasn't feeling well.

Grandma watched me this morning while Mommy went to her appt with the personal trainer. She said it went well and she even signed up for more. But I guess you already know that since Mommy talked to you about it.

I didnt eat much of my lunch today, but Kevin brought home donut holes for me. I had eaten about 4-5 of those before lunch so Mommy figures that is why I didn't eat lunch. Grandma spoiled me with the donut holes and let me eat too many.

Mommy ended up taking a nap with me though because she had a headache. It was nice to cuddle with Mommy during our nap since I wasnt feeling well.

We went to Hamburgery Factory for dinner and after some of Mommy's family came over to visit. They are down visiting from northern california. Mommy knew I was ready for bed when I dragged her with me to bed and turned on my music. She rocked me and I was out within 2 minutes. I had a long day and wasn't feeling good at all.

I love you and miss you so much Daddy. Mommy and Lana love and miss you too.

Dear Daddy,

Sorry I havent written the last few nights. I haven't been feeling well at all. Mommy took me to the doctor today, but you know that everything is okay since we talked to you right after the doctor.

Mommy hopes I feel better soon because I've been super whiny and clingy lately and nothing she does makes me happy.

Im excited for Saturday Daddy because we are going to go watch the fireworks like last year. I wish you were going to be here though Daddy. That would make things even better.

Tomorrow Grandma is going to watch me in the morning because Mommy has her session with the personal trainer. Mommy said she is going to have her butt kicked into gear or something like that :oP

I love you and miss you so much Daddy. Mommy love and misses you too! So does Lana.

XOXOXOXO

Love Alexander
